Identification of a three-long noncoding RNA prognostic model involved competitive endogenous RNA in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is generally identified as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) that plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma with poor prognosis and unclear pathogenesis. This study established a novel ceRNA network and thus identified a three-lncRNA prognostic model in KIRC patients.

Methods

Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The lncATLAS was applied to determine the differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) of the cytoplasm. The miRcode, miRDB, miRTarBase, and TargetScan databases were utilized to predict the interactions of DElncRNAs, DEmiRNAs, and DEmRNAs. Cytoscape was used to construct the c
